Taawa is one one of the corners of Plac Nowy in Kazimierz, and is one of the few nightclubs in the area. It is only open on Friday and Saturday nights (opens at 9pm, open until around 5am). It is a classy club and they will refuse entry if you are not dressed smart enough.

Movida is a trendy and cool cooktail bar in the Old Town area of Krakow. It can be quite busy and has good atmosphere. The staff are decent and are more than happy to speak English as you order cocktail after cocktail. Their cocktail menu is quite extensive, and they have a range of shots […]

Despite its name of “Antycafe” not many people would call it a cafe. It is a trendy bar in the heart of the Old Town of Krakow. They have an impressive amount of beers on offer behind the bar and it is often a busy place in the evenings. They put on special events from […]

The Herring Embassy (on Stolarska street, opposite/next to the USA embassy) is a popular bar with cheap booze (beer from 4zl) and quite a lot of seats. There are actually two separate buildings, one on each side of the street. It is popular for drinking, but has a good reputation for serving delicious herring meals […]

Krakow is one of the best places in the world for bar hopping – there are bars everywhere in Krakow. The only slight problem is that they can sometimes be a bit hard to find. The ‘obvious’ bars (the ones that are easy to spot) are always full of foreigners. A large portion of the […]

Prozak is a very popular club, near the main square (roughly one third of the way from the Cloth hall to the castle). It has a reputation for being a great place to party, and is often open very late (or, very early into the morning, depending on how you see it!)

The Irish Mbassy is a favourite pub of many expats and British/Irish tourists in Krakow. As well as serving Irish themed drinks they have the normal Polish options too. It is slightly more expensive that the bars close by (12zl for a Zywiec), but can have a great atmosphere.When it gets busier they open up […]

A big venue that puts on lots of good gigs. It is a little bit out of the city (and will cost around 20zl from Kazimierz in a taxi), and from our experience there will never be taxis waiting outside. So you will need to have a taxi number for when you want to leave! […]

Coco Music Club is a fancy and decent night club. It tends to attract quite a few foreigners, but plenty of locals are there too. The prices are a bit more expensive than some clubs, but not too bad. Definitely worth checking out!
